There Are a Whole Lot of Games Made by EGT

EGT Interactive is a Bulgarian software developer with over 17 years of experience

This software developer claims to have more than 250 games in its overall portfolio – what this means, is that EGT can fully power an entire online casino by itself. This fact alone testifies to the sustainability of EGT’s products, making the developer one of the most desired software suppliers in the industry. The main available gaming categories of EGT are Slots, Table, Cards and Bonus Games. You can learn more about them below.

The Slots Make up the Majority of the Portfolio

With more than 150 slot titles altogether, you can imagine why EGT has decided to split them into the following sub-categories: Classic, Fruit, Multiline, Extra Lines and Dice Slots. All slot titles are original, and while they may slightly differ in the quality of their art style, the interface controls will be the same for all slots; meaning that players won’t have to learn where the “Autoplay” button is every time they switch between games. Here, we have taken a more detailed look at the most popular EGT slots.

  • “50 Amazon’s Battle”

    The “50 Amazon’s Battle” is a 4x5 reel slot from EGT which has 50 pay lines

    As it becomes evident from the name, this Amazon-themed slot game has a 4x5 reel layout and 50 pay lines! The features include free spins, stacked scatter symbols, wild symbols, multi-denominations, double up feature, and of course – autoplay.

  • “Vampire Night”

    The EGT slot game “Vampire Night” features 5 pay lines and a 3x5 reel layout

    This is a horror-styled game, which has only 5 bet lines, that cover a 3x5 reel layout. The game has a multiplier feature and wild symbols.

  • “Volcano Wealth”

    The fantasy-themed slot “Volcano Wealth”, developed by EGT, features 100 pay lines

    In this fantasy-themed slot, players can take advantage of 100 bet lines, in a 4x5 reel layout. The game has scatter and wild symbols, and also awards free spins.

  • “Egypt Sky”

    The “Egypt Sky” is a 4x5 reel slot game from EGT with 40 pay lines

    Part of the ”Egypt Quest” series of slots, this game has 40 pay lines, and a whole lot of free spins that can come out of that 4x5 reel layout, along with some cool wins from the wild symbols as well.

  • “Sweet Cheese”

    The “Sweet Cheese” is a 3x5 cat & mouse-styled slot with 20 pay lines developed by EGT

    This is a 3x5 cat & mouse-styled slot with 20 pay lines in total. In addition to its colourful interface, the game features free spins, multipliers, and an extra wild symbol!

  • “40 Burning Hot”

    The EGT slot “40 Burning Hot” features 40 pay lines, two scatter symbols and a wild symbol

    EGT loves its fruit-themed slots, and this is why there are many Burning Hot slot variations. This one, in particular, has a 4x6 reel layout, 40 pay lines two different scatter symbols and a wild symbol as well!

There Are Only a Few Table Games

We were expecting to find quite a bit of table game titles in this section; however, the only ones present here, are Virtual Roulette, European Roulette, Lucky Circle, and Keno Universe. Lucky Circle isn’t even released yet, as it is evident from the “coming soon” message. The roulette titles are decent in style and impress with their smooth functionality. What is interesting about the roulette titles is that “Virtual Roulette” is an instant version of the game, where the player engages in spinning the ball, while in “European Roulette”, there is a live feed to a real roulette wheel, and there will be a bet timer for all players.

The Card Games Section Contains Video Poker

One would assume that card games would present us with some classic games such as blackjack or baccarat, but here it contains three video poker titles“4 of a Kind Bonus Poker”, “Joker Poker” and “Jacks or Better”. The interface of all three games is the same, except for the colour scheme of the tables.

The EGT card games section contains 3 video poker titles – “4 of a Kind Bonus Poker”, “Joker Poker” and “Jacks or Better”

One special feature that all video poker games have is a “double-up” feature, which allows players to risk their most recent win for a single round of “red or black” card draw. The games here will feature five different betting levels, and four types of jackpots, the value of which will be based on the four suits. Although the video poker titles of EGT play superbly, there is only one drawback – members can play only one hand at a time.

This Developer Is Licensed by Many Jurisdictions

EGT has stated that its online casino products are licensed in many countries around the globe, although there is no mention of any specific jurisdictions. What we do know, is that EGT has also currently engaged in numerous ongoing licensing procedures, which are meant to provide the developer with the proper credentials in other jurisdictions.

EGT Doesn’t Have Full Mobile Support on Its Games

While most of the slot games will run on mobile browsers based on the Android and iOS operating systems, there are games that aren’t supported by any smartphones or tablets. Some of those games include the entire “Cards” section. Players shouldn’t feel discouraged, because EGT is working extra hard in reworking its old titles to be compatible with the new technological standards.

The Use of Software Creation Technology

Since the beginning of EGT as a developer, they have used Flash as their main tool in creating online casino games. With the rise of mobile technology, HTML5 has taken the lead as the superior software developing platform, and today EGT are using it to create new games and re-work old ones.

There Are Many Things That Make This Company Stand Out

What sets EGT apart from most software developers online, is that in addition to the company creating casino games for the online gambling environment, it also offers VLT (Virtual Lottery Terminal) solutions for land-based establishments. EGT also provides different operators with a wide plethora of platform management tools, which allow for full marketing and feature control of their games. The high “customisability factor” of EGT is why it has remained in the iGaming industry for so long, and it continues to be one of the most versatile developers among other companies.

The News & Events Page Has a Lot of Information

Readers can learn more about EGT’s upcoming game releases and event attendances from the regularly updated news page. Naturally, the company also maintains a strong social network following on Facebook, YouTube, LinkedIn and Instagram. Visitors of the website can also follow the company via Skype. This software developer also has a highly active customer support department, so if a reader can’t find what they are looking for in the information section, they can always send an email!

Partnerships with Casinos and Other Companies

Due to the universal casino solutions offered and supplied by EGT, many developers and operators have engaged in a successful business relationship with the company. Some of the largest names in the industry include Efbet, Every Matrix, iSoftBet, NetBet, WinBet, Slots Millions, Loki Casino, Palms Bet and many others. To this day, EGT continues to be a treasured business partner in the iGaming industry.

In Conclusion – EGT Will Remain as an Industry Favourite

The truth is that while the games of EGT can’t be classified as “visually stunning”, their programming and functionality provides for a solid online casino experience. While this software platform has incredible ideas, they appear to market themselves more as a necessity, rather than a commodity. In our opinion, EGT will need to upgrade the overall visual style of their games, if they wish to be thought of as a passionate developer of online casino games. We are convinced that sooner or later, EGT will surprise us with something fresh!
